Event Reminder: Book Now Literature Festival 2008

Joining us are biographers, novelists and leading figures from film, theatre and politics. Together with celebrated writers of science and philosophy, an adventurer and a poet, there is something to appeal to all.

There is a focus on extraordinary lives: whether it’s the writers’ own lives or their subjects’, the true-life stories that are revealed are remarkable and inspirational; and two anniversaries will be celebrated: the 30th birthday of Virago Books and the 400th anniversary of Milton’s birth.
